Areas of Pain

The Pain Correction Process reduces many areas of pain.

Below you’ll find a listing of the most common areas, conditions, and sources of pain that we treat – helping our patients return to a more active lifestyle. All through the use of drug-free technology and procedures.

The Pain Correction Process reduces the pain coming from inflammation in the wrist, leading to numbness, tingling, and even weakness in the hand. Our process doesn’t rely on surgery or medications.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a painful inflammation of the nerve inside the wrist, called the Median Nerve.

Carpal Tunnel produces symptoms like persistent numbness, tingling and numbness of the thumb, index, middle and ring fingers. These symptoms often occur while the hand is being used.

The median nerve is situated in the area called carpal tunnel, which is very narrow due to compact structure of bones and ligaments in the wrist.

The pain in the hands often comes from a pinching of this nerve inside the wrist.

Sometimes Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can also come from pinching of the nerves further up from the wrist, like in the elbow, in the shoulder, or even in the neck. Our technology and procedures address these sources of pain as well.

The Pain Correction Process reduces the inflammation that leads to chronic muscle pain without the use of injections or painkillers.

Muscle pain has many sources, but often chronic muscle ache is often caused by trigger points.

Trigger points are small areas of very tight muscle fibers caused by over-activity, stress, and even sleeping problems and hormone shifts.

Chronic muscle pain can be minor to severe and can reduce your ability to enjoy everyday life.

When it occurs with distinct pain points in key muscles around the body, chronic muscle aches may be included as a part of a fibromyalgia diagnosis.

Deep muscle ache, including in cases of fibromyalgia, is treated by targeting the trigger points and releasing them with our technology and procedures. All without the use of injections or painkillers.

The Pain Correction Process treats the inflammation in the heal and the bottom of the foot that leads to the stabbing pain of this condition.

Plantar Fasciiitis is caused by scarring or inflammation in the plantar fascia, a tough connective tissue that connects the heel to the bones of your foot.

Plantar fascia absorbs the shock of walking, and helps maintain normal walking motion. The plantar fascia can become overstretched or sustain tears due to exercise and excessive footwork (prolonged running or standing.)

Plantar foot pain is often worse in the morning after just waking up, and often feels like a stabbing sensation in the heel, making it difficult to walk.

The Pain Correction process reduces stress on the foot and decreases painful inflammation in the bottom of the foot without using drugs, surgery, injections, or time consuming exercises.

The Pain Correction Process treats the inflammation of joints and muscles that lead to spine and neck pain.

There are many sources for spine and neck pain, including serious medical conditions.

The most common source of chronic spine and neck pain is musculoskeletal pain, or pain of the muscles and joints of the spine. Chronic irritation of joints, ligaments, and muscles often lead to osteoarthritis and joint breakdown in the spine and neck, which can be felt as chronic pain.

The Pain Correction technology reduces the pain and inflammation of many different kinds of spinal tissues that cause chronic spine and neck pain, reducing the use of injections and powerful medications.

[/thrive_toggles][thrive_toggles title=”Spinal Disc Pain” no=”12/18″]

The Pain Correction Process treats the inflammation that can be felt when the spinal discs breakdown, causing pain in many different parts of the spine.

Spinal discs are tough fibrous structures separating individual bones in the spine, and they serve as shock absorbers that help maintain the shape of the spine.

In many cases, problems in the spinal disc cause significant pain or discomfort in many different areas near and around the spine, including in the joints near the problem disc, in nerves near the disc, or even in the spinal disc itself – which can feel pain.

Spinal disc pain must be carefully assessed to determine which part of the spine is affected.

Many people take over the counter pain medications, or even prescription painkillers, which decrease pain but do not stimulate healing – and in many cases, may even slow it down.

Surgery is the last resort treatment for spinal disc pain due to limited evidence of good outcomes and risk of infection.

[/thrive_toggles][thrive_toggles title=”Stiffness” no=”13/18″]

The Pain Correction Process is a drug-free solution for many causes of joint and muscle stiffness, and loss of normal range of motion.

Normal joint motion is smooth and unrestricted to allow full-range of motion in the spine, shoulder, hips, knees and other areas.

Damage to the muscles, ligaments, and joint surfaces can cause joints to become stiff, and lose normal range of motion.

Loss of normal range of motion can further damage the joints over time, leading to osteoarthritis.

Joint stiffness is also a common symptom of diseases such as arthritis, lupus erythematosus, gout, bone infections, and inflammation of the tendons.

The Pain Correction technology is a injection-free, medication-free, surgery-free source of healing for joint stiffness.

Surgical pain is the pain or discomfort following surgery. It happens when the effect of anesthetic on the surgical area disappears, causing pain that tends to be worse when moving.

Health experts consider most post-surgical pain normal. But post-surgical pain is a concern for patients who are preparing for a surgical procedure.

The most common treatment for post-surgical pain are painkillers, including opiod based medications. The strength of the painkillers are often tailored to patient’s level of discomfort, and may involve two or more medicines using different routes (oral, intravenous, injections, etc.) to attain proper pain relief.

Painkillers may be an important part of helping patients move after surgery, however, they have side effects like nausea, constipation, and even addiction.

The Pain Correction technology offers a way to treat post-surgical pain and decrease reliance on strong painkillers in the recovery process.

[/thrive_toggles][thrive_toggles title=”Swelling” no=”16/18″]

The Pain Correction Process helps patients reduce the pain created by swelling, especially from mild injuries.

Edema is a swelling caused by an accumulation of fluid in the tissues beneath the skin. Edema causes the skin to ‘pit’ or leave an indentation when pressure is applied to an area.

Any condition that causes fluids to buildup in the body can cause edema. So can certain medications.

Mild edema often goes away without treatment, and elevation of the affected part higher than the heart can help make edema swelling disappear faster.

Longstanding edema is often treated with prescription medicines like water pills, which expels excess fluid in the body to help relieve fluid buildup.

The Pain Correction technology is helpful in cases of swelling from mild injuries, to assisting in reducing swelling due to certain chronic conditions.

[/thrive_toggles][thrive_toggles title=”Tendonitis” no=”17/18″]

The Pain Correction Process helps helps heal tendonitis pain with less rest time and fewer painkillers.

Tendonitis (or tendinitis/tendinosis) is the inflammation of a tendon.

Tendons are tough and elastic connective tissues that connect muscles to the bone. Muscles pull bones to create movement through the tendons.

Tendonitis can occur due to sudden sharp movements or repeated overuse of muscles. Tendonitis tends to occur on frequently-used muscles, like the wrist, fingers, elbows, shoulders and legs.

The tendons can also become infected and result to inflammation.

Treatment for tendonitis is often uses over-the-counter pain relievers, and the application of heat, ice, and rest. (Antibiotics are used for tendonitis caused by infection.)

Complete rest on the area is crucial for treatment of tendonitis, and return to activity must be gradual.

Physical therapy, use of ergonomic bracing, or orthotics are popular treatments.

The Pain Correction technology helps treat tendonitis without the use of pain killers and can reduce the amount of rest time necessary for healing.

[/thrive_toggles][thrive_toggles title=”Tennis Elbow” no=”18/18″]

The Pain Correction Process treats the inflammation that leads to chronic elbow pain with less rest time and fewer painkillers.

Soreness and pain in the outer part of the elbow is a classic sign of tennis elbow.

Gripping, turning the wrist, and lifting can create discomfort. The involved area may be tender and stiff, and there may be a loss of grip strength.

Tennis elbow happens due to inflammation of the tendons that joins the forearm muscles to the elbow. Both the forearm muscles and connected tendons can be inflamed.

Overuse of the elbow can cause this condition. Painters, carpenters, tennis players, plumbers, mechanics, cooks, cleaners, and others can all experience tennis elbow.

Rest, taking NSAIDS (aspirin, ibuprofen), and using forearm brace can relieve symptoms of tennis elbow while waiting for the tissue to heal. Exercises for the wrist and elbow can also help treat tennis elbow.

Surgery may even be considered for tennis elbow cases that become chronic.

The Pain Correction technology helps treat tennis elbow without the use of pain killers and can reduce the amount of rest time necessary for healing.
